We Live Artist of the Week: Procrastinatrix
youtube
We Live is more than just your average morning radio show taking place in the middle of the zombie apocalypse. Sure, guests call from all over the world and end their interview by getting eaten by zombies live on the air. Sure, these guests are athletes, musicians, artists, actors, journalists, and overall legends. But We Live is more than listening to hilarious interviews that always end the same way - people dying. It also is a show that plays the best indie and underground music on planet Earth.
The governments of the world have collapsed. Zombies lurch on every corner of the world. The living are encouraged to stay home and stay safe. But that doesn’t seem to happen. The world goes on, just with zombies. And since all bets are off, that means the industry conglomerates no longer own the radio waves. Thanks to the end of civilization as we know it, and the rise of undead ghouls, we all get to listen to amazing music from phenomenal artists.
We Live boasts the best underground music library from indie artists anywhere that the living still survives. Every week, we bring you music from around the globe that you would most likely never hear anywhere else. We’ll prove it. Go ahead and check out our Bandcamp page. And those are just some of our celebrated artists. We also search abandoned record stores and music studios for CDs, tapes, records, and even 8-tracks of forgotten or never “broke-through” musicians. We also search Soundcloud and Spotify for artists waiting to get noticed.
Every week, we highlight one particular artist or band that we think you’ll really enjoy regardless of your taste in music. This week, that band is PROCRASTINATRIX.
Music Gateway had this to say about the Welsh techno innovator: Based near Ystradgynlais, Procrastinatrix is a prolific Electronic Music artist with 10 albums & EP’s under his belt. He spends most of his time avoiding practical tasks and instead channeling his creativity into Ableton making spooky, off-kilter beats. Somewhere between Synth-pop and Experimentica, his music is at once catchy, discombobulating, hypnotic, wonky & strangely listenable. If you had to pin him to a genre, he’d say it’s Neo-Nostalgia. You can read the post here. Procrastinatrix’s music is covered throughout all of Episode 4 titled “Ashes to Ashes”. Listen to We Live on Spotify and enjoy every episode HERE. You can take a listen to their song on this week’s episode in the link below. Also remember that our 24/7 Deadline messaging phone number is open for voicemail or text. If you have anyone you’d like us to discover, please let us know at +1(360)836-0628.

Exclusive interview with ForwardVue Pharma released for Ophthalmic Drugs 2020

SMi reports: Alan Franklin, CEO, ForwardVue Pharma will be presenting at the Ophthalmic Drugs conference The 4th Annual Ophthalmic Drugs Conference taking place on the 23rd -24th November 2020, will explore new discoveries in the treatment of ocular disease, innovations in combination technologies, and the utterly unique challenges that are faced in the treatment of one of the most complex organs in the body.
In the run up to the conference, Alan Franklin, CEO, ForwardVue Pharma is interviewed by SMi Group to discuss his presentation details, insights of the Ophthalmic market and his thoughts on the biggest growth area and key developments that have taken place in the last year.
Those who register by the 30th September will save £100 with the early bird discount: http://www.ophthalmicdrugs.com/pharmapr4
Snapshot of Alan’s interview:
The ophthalmic drugs industry is maturing each year, in your opinion, what are the key developments that have taken place in the last year?
“The key news to me is the lack of development of approved and late stage anti-angiogenic molecules. Brolucizumab was approved, but it is associated with a small risk of occlusive vasculitis which can lead to profound, irreversible vision loss. Therefore, brolucizumab has not been widely adopted. The NDA for Abicipar pegol, which utilizes DARPin technology was rejected by the FDA secondary to concerns of inflammation with the 2 mg dose”.
What current topic will you be addressing in your presentation, and what would you say makes it relevant to 2020?
“We believe that stable small molecule therapy will offer both efficacy and durability advantages to the current treatment paradigm for common retinal diseases such as diabetic retinopathy, DR, and neovascular age related macular degeneration, nAMD”.

The ‘anti-spectacular’ Alternate with Sian Robinson Davies
Two performers talk, speaking alternate words. They use this method to see what happens to meaning when they can only plan one step at a time. Attempting to ‘listen ahead’ to one another, they often find their way to surprising places; places they doubt either one of them would have got to on their own.

Aerie Pharmaceuticals interview released for Ophthalmic Drugs Conference

SMi Group Reports: Vice President of Aerie Pharmaceuticals to present at SMi’s Ophthalmic Drugs conference commencing on 18th– 20th November 2019 in London.
SMi catches up with Aerie Pharmaceuticals Vice President, Chemistry, Mitchell de Long as a speaker for the Ophthalmic Drugs conference taking place on the 18th– 20th November 2019 in London. As Europe’s leading Ophthalmic Drugs conference, the three-day agenda will explore new discoveries in the treatment of ocular rare disease, innovations in gene therapy, the challenges in drug delivery through a complex barrier, patient comfort, and regulatory compliance which make up such core components within the Ophthalmic Drug sphere.
Snapshot of Mitchell’s interview:
The ophthalmic drugs market has matured greatly over recent years, what are the key significant developments you have noticed over the past year?
“The launch in the US of Rocklatan is certainly the most significant new development in the past year, as it marks the first approval by the US FDA of a combination drug containing a prostaglandin analogue (PGA). Also, of note is Allergan’s filing of an NDA in the US for an intracameral implant of bimatoprost, a prostaglandin analogue. This would mark the first time a PGA would be delivered by injection into the eye, as opposed to by an eyedrop. Other novel molecules that have launched in the past few years will also prove interesting as they find their niche in a suddenly more crowded marketplace.”
What do you personally see as the greatest challenge to overcome in the field of Ophthalmic Drugs at the moment?
“Since the last flurry of new ophthalmic drugs was launched, the reimbursement situation in the US has become much more complex and poses a significant challenge to the US launch of new drugs…”

Speaker Interview with iVeena Released for 3rd Ophthalmic Drugs Conference

SMi Group reports: Senior expert from iVeena is set to present at SMi’s 3rd Annual Ophthalmic Drugs 3 Day Conference taking place in London on 18 – 20 November 2019.
Europe’s leading Ophthalmic Drugs conference will explore new discoveries in the treatment of ocular rare disease, innovations in gene therapy, the challenges in drug delivery through a complex barrier, patient comfort and regulatory compliance which make up such core components within the Ophthalmic Drug sphere.
In the run up to the conference, SMi Group caught up with Mike Burr, Vice President of Product Development at iVeena, to discuss his upcoming presentation and his thoughts on the current challenges and opportunities in Ophthalmic Drug development.
A snapshot of Mike Burr’s interview:
Q.The ophthalmic novel drug delivery market has matured greatly over recent years, what are the key significant developments you have noticed over the past year? A. “For decades now there has been research in both academia and industry into longer term (beyond one day) sustained delivery technologies for direct ocular applications with minimal translation into commercial products. Regulatory approvals by the FDA in the last year in the post-cataract space for treatments intended to replace daily anti-inflammatory eye drops is very exciting. There is also a robust pipeline of sustained delivery glaucoma therapies which could provide chronic IOP lowering capabilities in the near term.”
Q.What do you personally see as the greatest challenge to overcome in ophthalmic drug delivery at the moment?
A.“Now that we are seeing the commercialisation of small molecule sustained release products, with hopefully more to come in the near term, the next frontier is in biologics. Large molecule stability for controlled release applications is a tough one.”
